Austin Ausberry, a four-star quarterback at University Lab High School in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, will announce his college engagement live on CBS Sports HQ Monday at 1:45 p.m. ET. Ausberry narrowed down its choices to Auburn, LSU, Alabama, Florida and Michigan. The 247Sports crystal ball gives LSU the edge in securing its services. You can watch the announcement live in the video at the top of this page, on the CBS Sports app or via your connected device (Roku, Amazon Fire, Apple TV).
Ausberry is ranked No. 177 overall and is the 22nd ranked cornerback in the 2022 recruiting class. He is the 13th player in Louisiana State, one of the top states in the country for star production. He is expected to play the cornerback in college, but has also recorded shots at safety and wide receiver.
Ausberry made unofficial visits to Florida and Alabama during the fall, and also made an official visit to Auburn over the weekend of October 9. Coach Bryan Harsin and several other Auburn staff members have gone to great lengths over the past few weeks despite the crystal ball favoring the LSU Tigers of Ausberry hometown over Auburn.
The early signing period will begin on Wednesday and last until Friday. It will be interesting to see if LSU coach Brian Kelly will be able to keep the hometown kid, or if the strong push from other programs with more established coaches can creep in and steal it from Kelly’s nose. .
